Arbor Wood Co. Arbor Wood Co. is a US producer of thermally modified wood siding, decking, and dimensional lumber
(1)

Produced from the abundant North Central forests of the USA, Arbor Wood Co. (AWCo) offers innovative thermally modified timber for a variety of outdoor and indoor applications from housing installations to decorative fixtures and product components. AWCo Thermally Modified Timber (TMT) joins together sustainably harvested wood, and a value added heat modification process, to bring finished TMT goods to a variety of markets and uses. Thermal Modification is a process that replaces the use of chemicals to enhance an inapt wood species performance with heat and steam so it is suitable for a multitude of applications indoors and out. The high heat modifies the cell structure of the wood and makes it highly resistant to rot while greatly reducing expansion and contraction. Through multiple cook temperatures a range of color options within a single species can be achieved without the use of stains. Aesthetically the wood is darkened in color and it brings an unexpected tropical look to more commonly lighter indigenous wood species. Since Thermally Modified wood does not absorb or hold moisture as it would prior to treatment, species that typically do not perform well in outdoor or wet environments can now be used as decking or siding.

Made here. Built for what’s next. 🇺🇸

At Arbor Wood Co., we believe sustainability starts long before our thermally modified wood reaches a project.

Our timber is responsibly sourced in the USA, and our thermally modified wood is produced here as well. That means a shorter, more resilient supply chain—while supporting American forestry, American jobs, and American manufacturing.

For architects, builders, and designers, domestic production also means greater control, more predictable procurement, and confidence in the quality and consistency of the material.

Because sustainable building materials should do more than perform beautifully. They should make sense from sourcing to installation. Read more about why U.S. manufacturing matters at the link in our bio.
